My Husband Asked Me to Take the Fall for Him, I Kicked Him Away
Chapter 4
Jane sat on the couch, watching TV and munching on chips.
"Jane, you can sleep in the guest room. It's quieter there." After saying that, I went to the kitchen to wash some vegetables.
Little did I know, they exchanged a knowing smile behind my back.
I absentmindedly chopped the celery. It was Jayden's favorite.
In a careless moment, I cut my finger and let out a startled yelp.
"Babe, are you okay? How did you cut your finger? Let me take over."
Jayden came running as soon as he heard me, just like always. I felt a bit more at ease.
"There's no way they have anything to hide, right?"
"Yeah, Ruby, come rest. Jayden and I can handle things." Jane chimed in, backing him up.
They gently pushed me out of the kitchen, leaving the two of them alone in there.
Now with nothing to do, I sat and stared blankly at the TV, my mind drifting.
The sudden sound of laughter snapped me out of my daze.
"Jayden, try these ribs I made," Jane said with a bright smile, offering him a bite with her fork.
The two of them joked around in the kitchen, just like Jayden and I used to.
